I couldn't care less about sound quality. You shouldn't care that Bob Dylan or Lou Reed can't sing because they still create fantastic music and lyrics. Same goes for The Ramones. That's what punk is. It's not complex musical feats, but rather, the opposite of whatever there is that is popular at the time.

Lyrics alone do not pull me into a song. I would like for that song to be musically mature instead of repetitive as well. I mean, perhaps as you are implying, they have great lyrics, and I find that good for them, but when the vocalist who sings those lyrics are awful, you can imagine how much that can annoy someone. This is just my opinion, that Joey Ramone is not a good singer at all.
I respect The Ramones for the status they've achieved, but punk is definately not for me. It's very hard for me to appreciate them because of the fact that they are punk, and the anarchy idea behind punk. I don't oppose the fact that they want to be the opposite of all music that was present, but when songs with lyrics like 'I Wanna Be Sedated' and 'Blitzkrieg Bop', that also drives me away from them totally. That's two reasons why I have every right to label them as the worst band IMO. Lyrics and musical artistry.
I have left Toribash, but will drop in occasionally on the forums and IRC. Still in Sigma.

worst band ever : can not be jonas brothers they are worst group ever, cannot be hannah montanna, worst singles artist ever to tell the truth the worst band ever is... ready?... Crystal Bellalika, they are a russian band that sucks balls, and the only good part is the fact that the chicks wear skimpy clothing... hurrah for sluts boo for the fact that they use a scythe as the main instrument...

I see your point, but they'll always hold the title for "Worst Sounding Band Ever", which is what I was mainly aiming for.
In that case...Jonas Brothers as the worst ever.
